What does your budget buy here?
Set a figure and we will match it against what is still available in this project.
Off-plan mortgages are arranged at handover, against the completed home.
The service charge starts at handover, not at purchase, and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the budget behind it is filed with the Mollak system each year, so the rate is reviewed once the building is occupied and can move from the launch figure.
You will get the unit number, floor, size and exact price for each — not the whole building.

Good to know
Straight answers from the developer's published terms, checked 8 Oct 2026.
What is the payment plan for Vela Dorchester Collection?
+
The developer offers 5% on booking, 55% during construction and 40% on handover.
How much is the booking amount for Vela Dorchester Collection?
+
5% of the purchase price falls due on booking — from AED 2,166,507 on the lowest-priced home. A bank or a broker may call the same figure the reservation deposit or the down payment; it is one and the same first instalment, and it is paid to the developer rather than to us.
When does Vela Dorchester Collection hand over?
+
Handover is scheduled for Q4 2026. Construction is 28.76% complete.
What do homes in Vela Dorchester Collection cost?
+
Homes currently available start from AED 43,330,140 and range up to AED 65,720,025 for 3.5 – 4.5 bed homes. These are the prices of the homes released for sale through our live feed today, not the launch prices — earlier and cheaper releases may have sold out.
How much does each bedroom size cost at Vela Dorchester Collection?
+
Published starting prices by layout are 3 bed from AED 43,330,140; 4 bed from AED 63,492,975. Those are the entry price for each size — floor, view and the exact layout move the figure, and the current price list carries the price of every remaining unit.
Is there a price list for Vela Dorchester Collection?
+
Yes. Ask for it on this page and the developer’s own price list is emailed to you — unit number, floor, exact size, price and price per square foot for every home still available. 5 homes were unsold at the last check on 8 Oct 2026.
Who is the developer of Vela Dorchester Collection?
+
Vela Dorchester Collection is developed by Omniyat in Business Bay · Dubai · United Arab Emirates.
What is the service charge at Vela Dorchester Collection?
+
The published service charge at Vela Dorchester Collection is 45 AED/sqft, billed once a year. On the smallest published layout, 6,361 sqft, that is roughly AED 286,245 a year. It starts at handover and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the annual budget behind the charge is filed with the Mollak system, so the figure is reviewed each year once the building is occupied. Checked 8 Oct 2026.
Is my money protected when buying off-plan at Vela Dorchester Collection?
+
Omniyat has registered an escrow account for Vela Dorchester Collection. In the UAE an off-plan instalment is paid into the project’s escrow account rather than to the developer directly, and is released against construction progress the regulator has verified. We do not publish the account number — your sale agreement and the developer’s own payment instructions carry it.
Does buying in Vela Dorchester Collection qualify for a UAE Golden Visa?
+
With homes currently available from AED 43,330,140, homes here meet the AED 2,000,000 property investment threshold for the 10-year Golden Visa. Since February 2026, off-plan and mortgaged purchases can qualify on a certified valuation — our advisors can confirm eligibility for a specific unit.
